Well done to the guys at Nanton. I’ve visited a couple of times during trips to Canada and always been impressed by their achievements and support from the local community. They are such a welcoming group too. It’s a shame they don’t have more room to taxi the Lancaster – I assume they manoeuvre it on the space out front of their hangar but with it being adjacent to the main road and not on an airfield it must be challenging! I know there are some videos on Youtube of engine runs but a sight of it being taxied would be good. The story of how they got the Lanc to its present site is fascinating too.

Did you mean the thread I began back in 2008?

http://forum.keypublishing.com/showthread.php?77657-Handley-Page-Halton-Pannier-Still-Surviving-In-Scrapyard&highlight=Pannier

My friend who’s photo of the pannier appeared in that thread will be delighted that something has been saved – well done.

You are quite correct, I happen to have a stack of Classic Wings’ leaflets at my elbow, as I was typing, and a touch of brain fade resulted in them being credited with the Rapide flights

Not to worry. I hope you have a super event and that the weather forecast is wrong.

?.. … We will also have Classic Wings’ Rapide offering flights …. ….

Wulfie

You seem to be confusing two different operators – I think you will find that a Classic Flight Dragon Rapide from CVT is earmarked (Classic Wings is a different organisation based at Duxford). 🙂

The Aero is G-ATBH see: https://www.flickr.com/photos/egbj/6160536094/

IIRC it survives stored down South.

Just remembered, there was a thread on this Forum about that example – see:
http://forum.keypublishing.com/showthread.php?78100-Aero-145-G-ATBH

I wonder I if it will fly again one day.

Great stuff – it depicts its ferry to the UK, but that wasn’t its last flight.

The aerial photos at the top of the following link I believe show your Jetstream at Elgin after parting out and sectioning at Inverness.

Might this be the Etrich E.VIII Taube Limusina of 1928?

I offered this same one up back in Feb 😮 See post No.98 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v243/Consul/Quiz_zps20e34374.jpg

At least one Ryan Brougham B-7 (not spelt Broughman) flown by National Airlines certainly had a speedring engine cowl – one is illustrated in “Ryan Broughams and their Builders” a book on the subject by William Wagner published back in 1974. That illustration in the book shows a dark painted example so not the item in your picture. Can’t easily tell if your picture is of a B-7 as distinctive features such as balanced rudder and revised right cabin door can’t be discerned.

… …
The Horsa and Waco are going into temporary storage at RAF Cosford, pending transfer over to the RAF Museum when space becomes available – which seems to be a more positive move than going into deep storage at Stafford.
… …

Not sure what conclusion to draw – some aircraft, in particular the RAFM Lockheed Ventura have been in deep store at Cosford for decades.
